We request to support this old blind gentleman’s small business in Tariq Road

It is rare to see Pakistanis unite, agree and come together for something right but when they do, it is truly beautiful.

Recently, a truly heart-wrenching story was shared on a Facebook page and we thought it was only our civil responsibility to share it forward.

Have a look at the Facebook post:

Someone was crossing Rehmania Masjid Graveyard opposite to Bahria Tower (Tariq Road, Karachi) and spotted an elderly man selling cold beverages.

The person found out that the elderly man was blind in both eyes since the last 15 years due to a blast in Karsaz when Benazir Bhutto (Former Prime Minister of Pakistan) came to Pakistan.

Currently residing in a 1 room flat in Tariq Road Commercial Market, whose rent amounts to 9,250 PKR, the man does not beg for money and only requests for prayers.

The person covering the story has requested Karachiites to visit his stall and buy from him. And we’d request the same.
